Man, I like your video and you did the research well. Thanks for taking time to also site your full list of sources. That being said, I kind of hate to bring this up for shame of siding with these new wave pseudoscienctists but I would like to draw attention and reconsideration of #32.

"It is at least not impossible to regard the earth's parts—soil, mountains, rivers, atmosphere etc,—as organs or parts of organs of a coordinated whole, each part with its definite function. And if we could see this whole, as a whole, through a great period of time, we might perceive not only organs with coordinated functions, but possibly also that process of consumption as replacement which in biology we call metabolism, or growth. In such case we would have all the visible attributes of a living thing, which we do not realize to be such because it is too big, and its life processes too slow." — Stephan Harding , Animate Earth
